How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

FAQs for Finningham

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Finningham?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What bath resealing costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Finningham. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What we’re called out for in Finningham

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • An untidy old seal

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
